excerpts from speech made by the HAWL representative upon presentation of the ... Friend of HAWL Award
Today we honor the second winner of the Friend of HAWL Award. The award has been given only one other time in 2011 to the Hon. Thomas E. Baynes. The Thomas E. Baynes Friend of HAWL Award recognizes a person or entity who has faithfully demonstrated a commitment to HAWL and the purpose, goals, and mission of HAWL.
We honor today the happiest person in the Hillsborough Association for Women Lawyers. To see her, is to smile. Our Friend of HAWL Award winner was selected for this special recognition for many reasons, her unending warm smile and kind spirit as well as her selfless generosity. Several years ago, there was a movie called Life is Beautiful. Like the gorgeous flowers that grace her webpage, our honoree has made our life more beautiful, through her service to our community and through her service to us. She has bloomed where she’s planted and brought beauty to our lives. On a personal note, she makes us look good in more than one way ... her photos often look better than the life-sized version of the person shown.
Deborah Larned Werner, we thank you for your faithfulness, your devotion and recognize you as a true friend of the Hillsborough Association for Women Lawyers and especially for saving our mentoring program ...
